More Description

A very unhappily-married aging Socrates in Ancient Athens tries to maintain the loving and mind-stimulating relationship with his old flame Aspasia, an extremely intelligent, artistic and compassionate courtesan from another country who secretly influences but is never officially part of Athenian politics. Socrates is nagged to death by his ignorant, crude, selfish and abusive wife while Aspasia deals with the 'moralistically and otherwise required' abuse from Lysices a high level popular politician who 'owns' her as a Mistress. Tensions rise and decisions have to be made when Lysices, whose life was saved by Socrates in the Pellioponesian War long ago, seeks revenge on the Revolutionary philosopher in many ways, and for secret reasons of which Socrates has no knowledge. Based on very real characters, events and sound speculation of what history could not have recorded, officially anyway.
